beSch

Version: 0007
by: Infineon [More]

beSch is a Restoration Shaman addon which tracks your watershield and earthshield in a minimalistic way.

You get 2 Numbers and a Name thats all.
Left number and name belong to your earthshield and the current, and last, target on which earthshield was active.
The right number is your watershield count.

The addon is currently tracking the 2.4 combatlog events to retrieve information. There is no scanning of your or the earthshield targets aura.

The configuration needs to be done via LUA editing!
You there can set colors, font settings, position and so on.
Also Chat or Audio notification is implemented and can be configured in the core.lua

For any ideas, help or error reports thanks in advance!

Re: Re: Re: Saved Variables

I currently have no need for adding options for those things cause i am happy with the things i setup in the lua.
Though I understand that people would like to have that.

The thing with the dragging isnt that easy because in the same moment where you are able to drag you need also saved vars for reminding the position. So overhead for me...

Thanks for your comments and maybe sometime there will be options

Yeah, I like how simple this is too. I was not requesting a gui, just saying SharedMedia would work well if there ever was one. Output to combat texts with SinkLib would also be a possibility. Just some ideas, if author decides to keep it as simple as possible, fine with me.

I am happy with the addon as is. Though I would like to be able to drag the frame rather than having to edit lua, reload, edit lua, reload...I don't think making the frame draggable would cause unnecessary bloat. Really, a draggable frame and saving settings to SV is all I would like to see added right now.

I'm just happy to have found a much simpler addon than ShamanFriend (did way more than I needed) that tracks both shields.

Saved Variables

Thanks for the reply I still think Saved Variables would be nice to have, otherwise you have to muck around with changing settings again every time you update.

This is a perfect example for a perfect addon.

Will this be updated for WotLK as there are now up to eight charges on the ES?

Updating it for Wotlk

It is quite easy to get it running properly for Wotlk. Simply open core.lua and locate the row(s) where it says "beSchVarEarthShieldCount = 6", and change it to "beSchVarEarthShieldCount = 8". If you also have the minor Water Shield glyph then you can locate "beSchVarWaterShieldCount = 3" and update it to "beSchVarWaterShieldCount = 4". Then save it and you should be good to go.

This is of course not a perfect update. It won't work properly for those cases where somebody else who does not have Improved Earth Shield casts his Earth Shield on your target, thus making you track his ES and the tracker incorrectly resetting to 8 charges.
I have updated mine to actually check how many charges remains on the target when it updates, rather than having the addon try to keep track of it by itself. However, I will not post a big change like that without the author's permission.
